At its altitude of 2,250m the air is already thin; on days when the toxic “cream”, as the familiar brown cloud of pollution is locally known, descends on the city, it is hard to breathe. Locals used to joke that the only life that could survive in the skies was jumbo jets. <p>Yet the smog is lifting. The average concentration of ozone, one of the most common pollutants, is about half its level in the early 1990s, when the air was at its dirtiest (see chart). In those days the national ozone limit of 0.11 parts per million was breached for at least an hour on nine days out of ten. Yet last year over half the days were below the cap. Joggers are back in parks and wildlife is airborne once more: a hummingbird regularly looks in on The Economist’s offices. ... </div> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> <a href="http://economist.com" target="_blank" style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;">economist.com</a> - 2010-07-29 16:47:03 GMT </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;"> <div style=""> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/economist/full_print_edition/~3/P_m8k2kaH4M/displaystory.cfm" target="_blank" style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;" >Strategic jousting between China and America: Testing the waters</a> </div> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; color : inherit;"> <p>Tensions rise over efforts to create a new Chinese lake <p>ON THE face of things, North Korea was supposed to quiver at the presence of a powerful American aircraft-carrier, the USS George Washington, at the head of a fleet of American and South Korean warships off the south-east coast of the Korean peninsula this week. The vessels fired artillery shells and lobbed anti-submarine bombs into the wine-dark sea. This was no idle show of force, but an act of intimidation aimed at deterring North Korea, which South Korea and the United States blame for the sinking in March of a South Korean corvette, the Cheonan. <p>But more subtly, it was also a shot across China’s bows. China refuses to condemn North Korea over the Cheonan sinking, to the irritation of America and others, while describing the exercises as unwarranted warmongering. America and China have shown growing signs of friction over their competing security presence around the trade-clogged shores of Asia. ... </div> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> <a href="http://economist.com" target="_blank" style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;">economist.com</a> - 2010-07-29 16:47:03 GMT </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;"> <div style=""> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/economist/full_print_edition/~3/qjtlLXtcX4s/displaystory.cfm" target="_blank" style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;" >Russia\'s heatwave: A hazy shade of summer</a> </div> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; color : inherit;"> <p>A potent mix of heat, haze, alcohol and corruption <p>RUSSIA’S ability to deal with its legendarily severe winters is a source of national pride.
